Mechanism constructed in accordance with the invention is particularly adapted iormachining round tapered parts, for example the tapered bores of valve bodies. In generaLthe illustrative embodiment shown in the accompanying drawings includes a frame A mounting a head B which carries a work holder l adapted to hold a work piece, specically a valve body V. Also carried by the frame A is a head C on which is mounted a tool holding member 2 carrying a tool T. The* Work holder I is rotated so as to revolve the work piece V and the tool holder is mounted on the head C for feeding' movement lupwardly and then return movement downwardly with respect to the work piece holding member I. In order to vary the mean diameter of the surface being machined, the head C is shifted horizontally in a straight line transversely to thedirection of feeding of the member I. For varying .they degree or angle ottaperof the machined surface, the head B is tilted on the frame A.

With more particular reference to the illustrative embodiment, the frame A is formed with a horizontally extending track 3 which receives for sliding movement a pad 4 formed on the lower head C. Bolts 5-5 having their head ends A captive screw and traveling nut device is provided for shifting the head C. A block 9 located on'andI secured to the head pad 4 by form the roughing or main cut andare then moved downwardly at a s low speed to perform a light ilnishing' cut. To provide for the desired dierence in feeding rates, the piston rods 22 and 23 are made of diierent diameters so as-to provide a dierential fluid displacement above and below the piston 2| for a given amount ofpiston travel. and this diiferential displacement is utilized to vary the piston speed. Inasmuch as it is desirable that the tool holder 2 be supported strongly, the upper piston rod 22 is made of larger diameter than the lower piston-rod 23, and the hydraulic circuit is so arranged that the larger effective piston displacement which occursduring a down stroke of the tool holder results in a slower downward travel.

screws I0 and pins I I extends into a clearance space I2 in the frame A and is formed with a threaded bore which receives a screw shaft I3 Journaled as at I 4--I5 on the` frame A. Collars I6 and I1 secured to the shaft I3 on opposite sides ofthe bearing I4 hold the shaft against endwise movement. The shaft is formed-with a squared end ,I8 adapted to receive a crank or the like by which the shaft' may be rotated.

When the shaft I3 is turned while being held against endwise movement, the block 9 and consequently the head C will -be shifted along the track 3 so as to change the line of feeding of the tool holder 2 according to the mean diameter of the surface to be machined.

A hydraulic motor is carried on the head 'C for feeding the tool holder 2. Integral with the head C is a cylinder in which is mounted a piston 2| equipped with upper and lower piston rods 22 and 23 extending respectively through packed glands 24 and 25. The piston rod 22 is formed at its upper end with a threaded bore for receiving the lower end of the tool holder 2 which may be held against being accidentally unscrewed by a lock nut 26.

The lower piston rod 23 extends through a Referring more particularly to the hydraulic circuit shown in Figure 17, a supply tank 42 is arranged to deliver working fluid through a. conduit 43 to a pump 44 which discharges through a conduit 4l to the intake port 49 of a reversing valve casing 41. The casing 41 is formed with a bore 43 which receives for sliding movement a spool valve 49 having a stem Il projecting beyond sleeve 21 secured to the lower end of the cylinder by screws 28. The sleeve 21 is threaded`externally to receive an adjustable stop nut 29 adapted to be held in adjusted position by a lock nut '39. A collar 3I held on a lreduced portion 32 of the piston rod 23 by nuts 33 is engageable with the bottom of the s top nut 29 for limiting the upper lower ends of two rods 39`having threaded con-` nection as at 31 with the head C.

As shown in Figure 6 the sleeve 21 is formed- With opposed longitudinally extending slots.33

which receive forJ sliding movement the ends 39 of a pin 40 mounted in a transverse opening 4| formed on the piston rod 23. Inasmuch as the sleeve 2J is fixed to the head C and cannot rotatel the slots 38 cooperate with the pin 40 to prevent rotation of the piston rods 23 and 22 and the tool holder 2.

The cylinder and piston motor 2li-2| for feeding the tool holder 2 is connected in a hydraulic circuit shown diagrammatically in Figure 1'1. The arrangement is such that the piston and tool the casing and equipped with a'double anged collar 5|. A lever I2 has its lower end disposed between the anges of the collar 5| so that rocking of the lever will eifect shifting of the spool valve 49.

A port 63 in the 'casing 41 leads through a conduit 54 to the lower end of the cylinder 2li. A

valve port 55 leads through a conduit 53 to the.

upper end of the cylinder 29. A branch conduit 51 leads from the conduit 54 to a. valve passage 53 opening into the bore 43 at the left of the valve 49 as viewed in Figure 17. A valve exhaust port 59 communicates with a conduit 83 which leads through a throttle valve 3| back to the supply tank 42. An exhaust port i2 communicates with a passage 93 which leads to the port 50 and conduit Il. 'I'he passage 93 passes behind the port 4l as viewed in Figure 17 and does not communicate directly with the port 49. A by-pass relief conduit 34 controlled by a relief valve 65 is interposed between the conduits 4l and 94.

In operation, when the lever 52 and spool valve 49 are positioned as shown in Figure 17, fluid under pressure will flow from the pump 44 through the conduit '45, the port 49, the valve bore 43, the port 53 and the conduit 54,50 as to `pass into the lower end of the cylinder 20 and drive the piston 2| and tool holder'2` upwardly. During therup stroke of the' piston 2| fluid contained in the cylinder 2l above the piston will be 5 forced out through the conduit 59, the valve ports i5 and I9, the conduit 9|, and the throttle valve 6| to be returned to the tank 42. Because of the large diameter ofthe piston rod 22 fluid will be exhaustedfrom the upper end of the cylinder and will be forced past the throttle valve 6I at a relatively slow rate. The throttlvalve restricts the return iiow of the working fluid, having the effect of opposing the upward movement of the piston 2i. However, since the displacement of uid'from above the piston is. at a slow rate for a given amount of piston travel, the retarding of the upward Ipiston travel by the throttle valve 6I is relatively small.

` holder are moved upwardlylat a fast rate to pervalve bore 49. The increased pressure acting. on

the left hand end of the valve 4s will shift the latter to the right. With the valve in its shifted position, fluid from the pump 44 will be delivere'd through the conduit 45, the .valve ports 48 and 65, and the conduit 68 to the upper end of the cylinder 20 for driving the piston 2| and tool holder 2 downwardly. Fluid contained inthe cylinder 20 below the piston 2| will be forced out through the conduitl 54, the valve ports 53 and 62, the passage 63, the port 59, and the conduit 60 so as to now through the throttle valve 8| and back into the tank 42. Because of the small diameter of the piston rod 23 with resultant relatively large cylinder volume below the .piston 2|, more fluid must be exhausted from the lower end of the cylinder 20 than had to be exhausted from the upper end of the cylinder when thepisquently the tool holder .2 will be fed upwardly at f a relatively rapid rate and will feed downwardly at a relatively s'lowvrate. This advantage is obtained together with the structural advantage of having the larger piston rod abovethe piston 2| so as to provide a stout support for the tool holder 2.

When the piston 2| reaches the limit 0f its downward travel as determined by engagement of the bottom of the rod 23 with the crossbar 34, pressure will build up in the conduits 56 and 45 until the relief valve 65 opens so as to permit uid to be byfpassed through the conduit 84 to the conduit 60 and thence to return to the tank 42.

In order to initiate another up stroke of the piston 2| and tool holder 2, the valve lever 52 is operated manually to return it and the valve 49 to the positions shown in Figure 17.

Referring now to the upper head B and the parts carried thereby for holding and rotating the work piece V, the frame A is formed with a vmounting'plate part 66 provided with spaced arcuate slots 61 curved on arcs having a frame opening 68 as a common center. A surface 69 of the head B is mounted against one face of the plate part 66 by means of a pintle or pin 10 extending through the frame opening B8 and having threaded engagement at 1| with a supporting plate 12 mounted against the opposite face of the plate part 66. Studs 13-13 having threaded anchorage at 14 in the supporting plate 12 span the plate 12 by extending respectively through the arcuate slots 61 and are equipped with nuts 15 which can be tightened to clamp the head B and supporting plate 12 against opposite sides of the frame plate part 66 respectively. When the l of the frame B required to adjust the workholder for machining different parts is small relative to n the amount of tilting movement of the head B which would be required if the axis 1818' of the pintle 10 passed through the workpiece V. Worm and sector mechanism is provided for spindle 9 tilting the head B to vary the degree or angle of taper being machined, on the work piece V. A combined mechanism frame and housing 18 is secured to and held in properly located position on the head B by locator pins 11 and bolts 18. A shaft 19 Journaled on the frame 16'at 80-80 is provided with a worm 8| meshing with a worm gear sector 82 secured to the top of the frame A and located thereon by means of screws 83 and pins 84. Collars 85 and,86 secured to the shaft 19 on opposite sides of one Journal bearing 80 hold the shaft 19 against endwise movement in the frame 16. One end of the shaft 19 is squared as at 81 for receiving a crank.

In operation, tilting adjustment of the head B is effected by loosening the nuts 15 and rotating the shaft 19. Inasmuch as the sector 82 is stationary on the frame A, rotation of the shaft 19 and worm 8| causes the shaft 19 and consequently A The collar 85 may the degree of tilt which has been imparted to the head B by rotation of the shaft 19.

For mounting the work holder for rotation, the headv B is formed with a vertical sleeve 88 which supports bearing assemblies 89 and 90 journaling va hollow spindle 9|. The inner race of the top bearing assembly 89 is clamped down against the top of a sleeve 92 by a nut 93 threaded on the upper portion 94 of the spindle 9|. 'I'he lower end of the sleevel 92 presses against the inner races of the bottom bearing assembly to hold the inner races against a shoulder 95 adjacent the bottom of the spindle'lll. A ring 96 secured to the bottom of the head sleeve 88 by screws 91 is formed with a shoulder 98 abutting the lowermost outer race of the bottom bearing assembly 90, the upper outer race of the assembly 90 being thereby held in a race seat 99 formed in the stationary sleeve 88. A packing |00 is interposed between the sleeve 88 and the nut 93 at the top of the spindle 9|, and a packing |0| is interposed between the stationary ring 96 and the lower end of the spindle 9| Mechanism for rotating the spindle 9|'and the work holder includes a motor |02 secured to the supporting plate 12 by bolts |03. The motor pulley |04 drives belts |05 which pass around a pulley |06 threaded onto the upper end portion 94 of the spindle 9|. Preferably the head B is formed with a cover portion |01 substantially enclosing the upper end of the spindle 9| and the pulley |06. When the head B is tilted in the manner previously described, the supporting plate 12 and motor |02 also will be tilted so that the position of the motor |02 with respect to the pulley |06 will remain unchanged and the belts |05 will remain properly aligned with respect to the pulleys |04 and |06.

The work holder I which is mounted on the lower end of the spindle `9| comprises an upper ring portion |08 threaded internally at |09 to engage a threaded flange 0 at the bottom of the Two ribs or arms i'i extend downwardly from the ring portion |08 and are spaced apart. The lower ends of the arms are integral with a lower ring part ||2 threaded' externally at I3 and formed with a bore |4.

The work holder is provided with upper and lower adapter parts ||5 and ||8 between which the Work piece V is clamped. 'I'he upper adapter l5 is threaded at ||1 and screwed into an opening H8 in the bottom of the spindle 9| The lower adapter I6 is tted in the bore ||4 1n the rmg portion uz er the werk' holder :"anqgis formed with a peripheral groove I I9. l

A clamp nut is threaded internally for ensagement with the threaded part I I3 of the work holder I and is formed with seats at I 2| which receive keys |22 secured to the nut |20 by screws |23 extending through radial slots |23a in the keys. The keysl |22 are formed with projections |24 which extend into the groove ||9. When the screws lI 23 are loosened; the keys may be adjusted v radially, as is` permitted by the'slots |23a.

When -a work-piece V is to be securedin the work holder |,'v the piece V is. inserted sidewise |52 when the tool begins to move upwardly on l its rough cutting stroke. As shown diagrambetween the arms I and is centered with respect to the spindle axis in a manner to be described.

, The n the clamping nut .|20 is drawn up tight so of the spindle 9|. A locator or centering rod |25 is mounted for sliding movement in the hollow spindle 9|. The rod |25 comprises a hollow tube tted with a lower end lmember .|25 formed with a threaded bore |21 adapted to receive the threaded stem' |28 o'f a work piece locating or centering matically in Figure 17, the motor |02 is 'connected in a circuit includingv conductors |45 and |41 leading .to av switch |48 mounted on the cross bar 34 as shown in'Figures 4 and 5. The switch |45 includes a push button operating member |49 whichprojects up through an opening |50 in the cross bar4 34 directlyf under the piston rod 23.

When the piston rod v2 3 andthe work holder 2 are in their lowermost positions as shown in Figures 4 and 5, the switch `push button |49 is depressed and the circuit to the motor |02 is open so that the work holder will not be driven. A As soon as the piston rod 23 and work holder I move upwardly, the switch push button |49 y will rise, thereby closing the switch |48 and comlower end of the pin to move into the preformed bore in the work piece V. The tapered lower end of the pin |30 will then automatically shift the work piece V so as to center its bore vadapters ||6 and |I5 and thecentering rod |25 is raised clear of the bore in the work piece.

For operating the centering rod |25,- a lever |3| is fast on a shaft |32 journaled onthe head 'B as at |33-|33. .An arr'n |34 secured to thev shaft |32 is formed with a forked end |35 carrying rollers |35 disposed between spaced flanges or collars |31 on the' centering rod I|25. By rocking the lever I3I, the rod |25 can be raised or lowered at will. `Detent mechanism for holding .therod in its raised position includes a detent lever |38 plvoted on the head B at |39 and equipped with a pin |40 adapted" to be received in a depression |4| in a sector |42 carried by the shaft |32. A spring |43 interposed between a pin |44 on the lever |38-and a pin |45 anchored onthe head B urges the lever |38 to rock s o as to pressthe pin |40 into engage ment rwith the sector |42. When the pin |40 is inthe depression I4I the rod |25 will be held in raised. position. When the rod |25'is in its lower -position it will remain there by gravity until it is raised by the operator.

Means arprovided for stopping the work piece holder driving motor |02 when the tool holder 2 is fully retracted and for starting the motor pleting the circuit to the motor |02 so as to drive the work holder I.

Means are provided for directing a stream of coolant upon the surface being machined while the, tool 'I' is cutting and for automatically discontinuing the ow of coolant when the tool moves downwardly below the work piece V ,after the machining operation has been completed. A motor driven vpump |5I has its intake |52 arranged to receive coolant from a reservoir |53.

The pump |5| discharges through Ia relief valve |-54a and discharge pipe |54 to a. flexible tube or hose connection |55 which leads to a cut on valve |55 carried on a supporting arm |51 projecting from the collar 3| on the piston rod 23. As shown in Figure '5, the arm |51 is formed with a passage |58 communicating'with a'passage |59 extending longitudinally through the piston and rod unit 23-2I-22. The" passage |59 in turn communicates with a passage |50 in the tool holder 2, the upper arm of the passage |50 opening laterally through thetool holder 2'just below the tool T. In order to permit coolant to ilow past the pin 40 which traverses the passage |59, the pin is formed with a circumferential groove 40a registering with the passage |59.

The cutoff valve |50 which controls the ilow of coolant is opened automatically when the tool holder 2 moves the tool into lcutting position and is closed automatically when the tool is moved below the work piece after the machining operation has been completed. A follower arm |52 pivoted as at |53 on the supporting arm |51 l is equipped with aroller 'I 54 which engages a coolant deliveredA by the pump |-5I will be bypassed Vback to the reservoir |53 through the pressure responsive relief valve I54a. When the tool holder begins to rise, the roller I 54 moves onto the high part of the cam |55, thereby rocking the arm |52 to press the valve plunger |5| and open the valve |55 so as to permit coolant to be delivered to theI surface being machined Coolant and chips fall from the work piece V into a pan |55 supported on the cylinder 20 and thence return through a pipe |51 tothe reservoir |53. Preferably the work holder is enclosed by a housing |58 secured on the head B and equippedI with a door |59 hinged as at |10 so as to be readily openable for inserting work pieces into and removing them from the work holder I.

Operation A complete operating cycle of the machine will be reviewed briey. Before a work piece has been placed in the machine, the piston 2| and tool holder 2 will be in their lowermost positions with the lower end of the rod'23 holding the switch button |49 depressed so that the motor |02 and spindle 9| will not be running. The roller |64 will be on the low part of the cam |65 and the valve |56 will be closed so that no coolant will fiow through the tool holder 2. Coolant delivered by the pump |5| will be bypassed through the valve |54a back to the reservoir |53. The valve 49 will be in a position to the right of that shown in Figure 17 so that fluid delivered under pressure by the pump 44 'will be directed to the upper end of the cylinder 20, holding lthe piston 2| in its lowermost position while pressure fluid is by-passed through the valve 55 back to the tank 42. The centering rod |25 will be in its upper position.

To prepare for a machining operation, the clamping nut |20 is backed ol and a Work piece V is inserted between the adapters ||5 and IIS. The lever |3| is then depressed to lower the rod |25 and cause the tapered pin |30 to center the work piece V. 'I'he nut |20 is drawn up tight to clamp the work piece V, and the lever |3| then is raised to lift the centering rod |25 to move the pin |30 completely out of the work piece bore. i

The shaft 19 is then turned to tilt the head B to a position depending upon the desired degree of taper to be formed in the workpiece bore, and

the shaft I3 is rotated to shift the head C according to the desired mean diameter to be formed in the work piece bore.

To start the machining operation the valve lever 52 is shifted to move the valve 49 to the position shown in Figure 17. Fluid under pressure will then be delivered to the bottom end of the cylinder 20 and the piston 2| will be moved upwardly at a relatively rapid rate to cause the tool T to perform the rough cutting operation.

' As soon as the piston rod 23 is raised enough to release the switch button |49, the switch |48 will close so as to start the motor |02, whereupon the spindle 9|, the work holder l, and the work piece V will be rotated. Before the tool T engages the work piece, the roller |64 will move onto the high part of the cam |65 thereby opening the valve |56 to cause coolant to be delivered to the surface to be machined.

After the roughing cut has been completed, the collar 3| carried by the piston rod 23 will engage the stop nut 29, arresting movement of the piston 2| and tool holder 2 and resulting in a building up of pressure in the conduits 54 and 5l. The built up pressure acting on the left hand end of the valve 49 will shift the latter back to its starting position and pressure fluid will then be directed to the upper end of the cylinder 20 so as to drive the piston 2| and tool holder 2 downwardly ata relatively slow rate for causing the tool T to perform its finish cut.

When the piston rod 23 approaches its lowermost position, the roller |64 will move onto the low part of the cam |65, causing the coolant valve |56 to close. A slight further movement of the piston rod will bring it into engagement with the switch push button |49 to open the switch |48 and stop'the motor |02. The.parts will then come to rest in their starting positions and the machined work piece V can be X removed by backing of! the clamping nut |20.

The mechanism disclosed herein embodies the invention in the form now preferred, but it will be apparent that changes may be made without departing from the invention as defined in the claims.
